Its not only portability, but scalability and RAD and yes the RAD is very
impresive when you know what your doing. A structure of a site, can be
completed in next to no time with CF. Not to mention that the ability to
create matching open and close custom tags creates the ability to do so much
more with the generated content than even ASP can't do..... CF might not
have the ability to create custom functions yet, but it makes up with the
above mentioned on tags. the customtag LessWhiteSPace is a good example, or
Ben's DHTMLMenu is another example.

Just to add to Paul's comments......one advantage that CF "currently" has
over ASP is portability to other OS's. That can be a big one for a lot of
companies.
